Hello everyone,
My name is Palash Singhal. I am a final year undergraduate student pursuing a dual degree in Electrical Engineering along with Economics from BITS Pilani, India. I took GMAT on 9th July 2016 and have scored a 770(AWA 5.5, IR 5, Q51, V44). My current CGPA is 7.62/10. With my current situation, I am confused as to which programs around the world can I apply for where I have a realistic chance.
Profile:-
2 internships- Mostly technical in nature
Extra-Curriculars:-
1. Member of college basketball team for one edition of sports festival of the college.
2. Member of Enactus Chapter of the college. Was part of the team which worked with a group of rural women to enable them to generate a part-time income using their cooking skills.
3. Member of Photography Club of the college.
Please help me evaluate my current profile and suggest future options where I can think of applying.
Thanks
Palash,
Thank you for your profile post. Are you considering any programs such as 2+2 or Yale Silver Scholars? If so, your internships and full-time job offer will be an important factor in your admission. Do you have a sense for what type of work you want to do? I am happy to brainstorm some options with you if you want.
If you wait for a few years and then apply, you should be able to target top 10 schools if you have the work experience and extra-curricular leadership to support it.
Send me a note to discuss further. There are things you can do now to ensure you have the right profile when you apply so it isn't too early to start the conversation.
